Oh crap, should I get the Asus one or the EVGA SC? I'm leaning more towards Asus 'cause they got voltage tweak, but then again EVGA's have good customer service/warranty, and still OC's like a beast F! F! F! F!

Asus one is $500 (out of stock though) at Newegg right now and EVGA SC is still $525 as RJ mentioned. If I were to get the Asus one and have the voltage turned up a bit, would it be wise to *keep* it there for a long-term OC? I'm not planning on keeping the card for more than 8 months, (lol, probably closer to 6) anyway, so...
[Off-Topic]I'm gonna post a thread in OC/Tweaking/Benching forum about 480 OC's if there isn't one already. I'm new to video card OCing and kind-of like WTF? with the overclock I reached. RJ's 825MHZ OC makes me more settled, but if anyone else would like to chime in, much appreciated
